Chapter 14: The Mystery of the Star Palace (Part I) (Revised Version)
Li Laosi's shot put-shot blasting not only did not buy us more time, but collapsed in some places, a huge stone gate fell in the corridor where we were located, there was no way to go on both sides of the wall, but now it is good, there is no way out.
The terracotta roared on the other side of the stone door, banging on the door and making a strange cry, like crows.
I patted the stone gate with my hand, looked back at Li Laosi with a wry smile and said, "Fourth master, you are a master." ”
Li Laosi leisurely leaned against the corner of the wall and smoked as if he had completed a major mission, rolled his eyelids when he heard me speak, and said, "You kid don't talk to me, and this is the result for whoever you change." ”
I shrugged at him, meaning "Not necessarily. ”
Jiang Yuan looked at the stone gate falling from the sky with a very serious expression, his eyes seemed to be studying some rare antiques, and he touched it with white gloves, no matter how he looked at it, he looked like a dealer of cultural relics who had never seen anything.
After about ten minutes, Jiang Yuan removed his white gloves, turned to the crowd and said, "Get ready, let's go up from here." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Liang Jun handed him the equipment he wanted to use very respectfully, and said, "Boss, it is conservatively estimated at thirty meters here, are you sure you want to do this?" ”
After Jiang Yuan took the mountaineering rope, his eyes swept over the crowd and asked, "It's all right!" ”
Several young people said yes, even Li Laosi said OK with a few hairs on the top of his head, but when his eyes turned to me, I just looked up at the black patch above my head, and said embarrassedly: "I, I'm afraid of heights." ”
Everyone, including the grasshopper, sighed.
Jiang Yuan also sighed helplessly, he looked at the mountaineering rope in his hand, and suddenly said to Liang Jun: "Take a pair, I'll take him." ”
I wanted to refuse, and I wanted to tell them that I could try it and try not to cause trouble to everyone, but Jiang Yuan's sharp eyes and serious aura made me not even have the courage to refuse.
Everything was ready, everyone was ready to go, and some of the smaller ones stood at the back of the line, chattering and whispering, as if excited.
The illumination range of the four military strong flashlights is very wide, with the help of extremely strong beams, I saw some very slight scratches on the stone door, Jiang Yuan said that those are not scratches, but lines, they are deliberately made, as for what special significance he does not know for the time being. However, the only thing that can be confirmed at the moment is that there must be a confined space in the place where such a gate was originally located, which can also be said to be a closed stone chamber.
The climbing process will not be repeated, the final result is that Jiang Yuan's judgment is correct, there is really an independent space above the stone gate, we climbed up and found that this is a burial chamber, and the biggest feature of this tomb is that there is no coffin in the traditional sense, but a jade double couch is placed in the center of the room.
The air quality in the tomb is very poor, although I can breathe, the smell is strange, and I smell a slight dizziness and chest tightness.
Standing four or five meters away from the jade couch, the grasshopper observed it intently for a moment, and suddenly shouted: "Boss, look, it's jade." ”
The grasshopper has a high attainment in jade identification, and he naturally has some reason for saying this, and I feel the same way.
"What else can you discern besides that?" I asked him.
The grasshopper concentrated, circled around the jade couch, and said as he walked: "The whole body is emerald green, and there is a glass luster, the texture is delicate and flawless, the important thing is that under the illumination of strong light, it presents a state of almost transparency, boss, if I am not mistaken, this is a rare old pit glass species, the best in the jadeite on the market at present." ”
After that, he also pointed to the jade couch and said to me: "Moreover, this jade bed is complete and unconnected, at a glance it is a complete jade carving, on the market today, several pit resources have been gradually depleted, such a good thing is probably the only one in the world." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Laosi behind him clapped his hands and praised, saying: "Wonderful, wonderful, it's really terrifying, Boss Xiao has a guy like you, and he really picked up a treasure." ”
I knew that there was something in his words, and I had already guessed his mind from his cunning eyes, so I stopped him before he could say the second half of the sentence, and said, "The hairy boy is talking nonsense, which makes Boss Jiang and the fourth master laugh." ”
Jiang Yuan looked at the jade couch and was distracted, and when he heard me speak, he immediately came back to his senses and said: "What he said is very right, this is the whole piece of Laokeng glass jade, this little brother is young, and he is quite talented in jade identification, I don't know who he inherits?" ”
I hurriedly answered the phone and said, "What teacher? In fact, our store itself is engaged in the jade business, and after a long time, the illiterate can also read a wide range of books, do you say that this is the reason? ”
Li Laosi laughed, "Boss Xiao is shrewd, shrewd." ”
I don't know what he meant, but I know that he must have something else to say, but I didn't bother to investigate it, so I turned around and winked at the grasshopper, which meant that I would talk less to this person in the future and try to stay away.
The grasshopper also made an OK gesture at me, which means I understand.
Jiang Yuan stood about two meters away from the jade couch, stared at it for a moment, and suddenly turned his head to ask me, "Boss Xiao, how much is this Ming artifact worth?" ”
I shone it with a flashlight, "Conservative estimate, eight figures, but I may not be able to make a shot." ”
Jiang Yuan looked at it coldly, I immediately put on a smile and said: "Don't stare at me, I'm telling the truth, this thing, how much it is worth depends entirely on how much the buyer is willing to pay, although this jade couch is precious, but the identity is not simple, just ask, who dares to buy it back and collect it, it's not that I scare you, no one dares to put this thing at home, not to mention what secrets are hidden behind it, just with this piece of jade, those buyers will not hesitate to destroy it, and then remake the jade material, and the thing will be washed white. And it could double in value. ”
Li Laosi nodded and said: "What Boss Xiao said makes sense, this thing, just like a chime, knows it well, but no one dares to ask, on the high seas, these are all things that those big sellers dare not easily touch." ”
Jiang Yuan didn't speak, his face was expressionless, I couldn't see what he meant.
Actually, I have another question in my heart, that is, this kind of jade material was only enjoyed by the royal family in ancient times, even if it is the emperor's own brother, if he uses it without permission, it is a felony, but this is just a general's tomb, how can there be such a thing?
"Could it be that this is another tomb?" When one of the guys finished speaking, he looked at me, meaning that I was right.
"Another tomb." Jiang Yuan repeated this sentence in a low voice.
Gushan Village is surrounded by mountains on all sides, surrounded by lofty mountains, to say that the treasure land of feng shui, this is definitely not the best choice, so no matter which dynasty or generation of emperors will not be stupid enough to build their imperial tombs in this place where birds don't.
The cobra walked around the tomb with a miner's lamp, and said as he walked: "Fourth master, I think this should be an ear room, and this jade couch is likely to be the burial goods of the year, but something happened in the middle, and the jade bed did not reach the main burial chamber or other places smoothly." ”
Liang Jun also turned on a miner's lamp, he was more careful than a cobra, circled around the jade couch three times, and then stood still, and said, "No, this thing is not temporarily placed here, but buried here after careful design, you see here." ”
A few of us looked in the direction of Liang Jun's finger, and a jade belt appeared at the base of the jade couch, which was not the one tied around the waist of the ancient dignitaries and nobles, but a very high-standard form of funeral.
After listening to me, the gnats were silent for a moment, then suddenly looked at me and said, "It seems that this may really be a main burial chamber." It's just that who is the owner of such a simple main tomb. ”
After I held the miner's lamp and looked at the murals around, I found that the murals here are very special, under normal circumstances, the murals in the main tomb will be based on some major events that happened during the life of the tomb owner, and the most glorious moments of the tomb owner's life are recorded in the form of murals, but the murals here are filled with a gloomy and weird atmosphere, which makes people uncomfortable.
